Her popularity is such that she's bagged numerous awards over the years.

Not to mention the character's myriad of passionate affairs.

Moreover, recently in the well-known village, Moira was hit with the life-altering news of having a brain tumour, following her unusual behaviour and seizures, reports . The revelation left the Dingles shattered but the renowned family were then struck with another heartbreaking blow when it was disclosed that Zak Dingle, played by Steve Halliwell, had passed away in Scotland. Zak was returned to Scotland by Cain (Jeff Hordley) and his funeral was held last week.

Regrettably, Moira was offered a slot for her tumour removal surgery - but declined it as it coincided with Zak's funeral date. Adding to the drama, next week, things are expected to get emotionally charged when Cain confesses his fear of facing the possibility that Moria could pass away. Moira later opts to visit her son Adam (Adam Thomas), but it then hits Moira and Cain that he may soon be bidding her farewell forever.
